Another bond election may be in Frisco ISD's future, two years after voters rejected a tax increase to help one of the state's fastest-growing districts.

District leaders say this time, the plan won't increase the property tax rate, according to a news release.

A committee assigned to look at the district's needs will recommend asking voters in November to approve new debt for a host of capital projects, including new schools and a fine-arts auditorium. The possible bond election, along with other recommendations, will be discussed Thursday evening at a special board meeting.

No decisions will be made Thursday. But trustees will have just a few weeks if they intend to place a measure on the November ballot.

The district has been reining in its spending since August 2016, when voters defeated a 13-cent property tax-rate hike to fund operations. A series of budget cuts and new fees passed along to families ensued. Frisco ISD also delayed opening four new schools for a year to save about $15 million in operating costs.

But those new schools — Memorial High School, Lawler Middle School, and Talley and Liscano elementaries — are opening this fall. The Frisco Chamber of Commerce on Monday helped the district welcome nearly 800 new teachers and staff. Many of them will fill those new buildings.

And the district has been able to save enough money to offer teacher raises as well as make a series of changes to boost security in the wake of multiple threats in schools here as well as nationwide.

Frisco ISD's growth has put pressure on officials to meet the needs of a projected 60,697 students this year.

The Facilities & Programs Evaluation Committee, which will make the recommendations, looked at student enrollment projections, building capacities and facility and maintenance needs.

The district's property tax rate is currently set at $1.46 per $100 valuation with $1.04 of that set aside for maintenance and operations and the remaining 42 cents for capital needs. For the owner of a home appraised at $350,000, that means an annual tax bill of $4,745 if they have a homestead exemption.
